Welcome! Congratulations on your upcoming marriage. Whatever your faith, culture, life style, or traditions, it's my joy to work with you to custom write a ceremony that's unique, memorable, personal, celebratory, and that expresses your tender emotions in your language of love and commitment. I officiate at weddings, renewals of vows, commitment ceremonies, and all the other rituals that honor the love we've known and shared in our lives. (See more about my other rituals in 'Other Rites'.)
Earth's the right place
for love.
I don't know where it's likely to go better.
~ Robert Frost
I'm a seminary educated, ordained Unitarian Universalist minister.
I offer non-denominational, interfaith, spiritual, and civil ceremonies,
in your style, and in the language of your beliefs and traditions.
I've served individuals, families, & congregations as a minister since 1994.
I also offer marriage enrichment, spiritual counseling,
support to care-givers, and mentoring to seminarians.
I primarily serve the NC Triangle and eastern NC Triad,
and am licensed to perform weddings in Virginia.
At your wedding, I want you to enjoy your ceremony, to speak to your beloved in words you choose, to drink in the love that surrounds you. I love it when guests come up to me after a ceremony and say 'You know...that was just like them." Then I know that we've honored your love in your way.
Some couples say they don't know where to start in planning their ceremony. That's ok, because I do.
It's a privilege to be a part of your special day!
I've celebrated weddings with couples
for over 15 years!
I'm warm, easy going, and professional.
I offer a calm and knowledgeable presence.
In our work together,
I listen to the story of your love, we share ideas,
and I offer you an e-book full of examples for
every element of the ceremony
to see what language and symbolism calls to you.
From all this, we create a ceremony unique to you.
We use email and phone calls to keep planning easy.
In your ceremony, I only speak words
you've chosen or approved.
Standing on the side of love, I joyfully
celebrate weddings for same-sex partners,
and hope one day they'll be legal in NC.
I'm now booking through Fall 2010
